I see everyone has a strong opinion, I guessing then you have not read some of the same articles I have. If you have, then shame on you.
Foreign students protest slave labor at Hershey's
Foreign students protest slave labor at Hershey's — RT
Quote:
The international students working at the Hershey plant are saying they’re barely breaking even on the excursion to the US after everything is taken into account, however, despite their salaries.
Students had to fork over upwards of $6,000 to the California-based Council for Educational Travel USA, or CETUSA, for participation in the program.
Though workers are making $8.35 an hour, housing and program fees are deducted directly from their paychecks. While they came to America seeking a land of opportunity, many are finding themselves in the hole now that their duration with the program has neared expiration. Once all fees are taken into account, students say they are left with less money than they had at the beginning, even after weeks of grueling labor.

We've all heard about sex trafficking, but did you know that America is among the three highest countries for imported sex slaves and that they're being brought in legally through the National Foreign Exchange Student Program?

If you Google that last topic, articles going back ten years can be found, not a new or sudden problem.
